11/06/2008 The Lebanese army on Wednesday said it will use force to stop violations in Beirut.
A communiqué issued by the army command said "some youths seek to gather and carry out provocative, irresponsible acts in various areas of the capital."

The statement called on "everybody" to refrain from such acts "in an effort to reduce tension and spread peace and stability."

The army warned violators that it would "deter them by force" if needed.
“People committing infractions will be properly dealt with and arrested, even if this necessitates the use of force,” the communiqué added.
